That isn't going to happen yet, though. And not likely from the Republicans.
I can still see something weird happening at the Democratic convention involving Hillary, her getting the nomination, the hardcore Obama supporters jumping to McCain to spite her, McCain winning, and the Democrats splitting.
Of course, that is still about as likely as one of those "Hillary runs with Bill, wins, resigns, then is appointed VP" theories, so we're stuck with what we've got.

Who are "the moderates" from both parties? What are their common interests, besides personal concerns about fuel prices and "the economy"? Do you think that people who want new laws passed that put doctors who perform abortions and/or women who choose to have abortions, in jail, to prevent the procedure from being available, and people who believe the abortion issue is "settled law", are going to come together under one political tent?
I don't see many republican "moderates", and neither does the senate voting record show many..... There will be no "jumping" to McCain. What would be the attraction of McCain's candidacy, for an Obama supporter, compared to sitting out the general election? Nobody who supports Obama wants to endure what American life will be like during four more years of McBush!
OUR EMERGING CONCERN IS THE "WINGERIZATION" RAMPANT IN THE OFFICER RANKS IN OUR MILITARY.
